Meet the Fountains Care Home team

Hi, my name is Sam. I have worked in care for approx. 6 years and starting my career as a care assistant. I have worked in residential and nursing homes progressing to a unit leader of a memory lane unit.

I am extremely passionate about caring and I'm very excited to further my skills at Fountains Care home as the Acting Deputy Manager.

Hi, my name is Jinelle and I am the receptionist at Fountains.

I joined Barchester in October 2021 and working in the care sector is an exciting and new experience for me. I am finding the role extremely rewarding knowing I am making a difference, however small, to our residents and their families lives.

I love being the first point of contact and look forward to welcoming everyone to Fountains care home.

I joined Barchester in September 2019. Before this, I worked as an administrator, and I have worked in this capacity since joining the healthcare sector in 2012.

I enjoy being an administrator because I find that you get the combination of helping a business to grow by supporting the environment in any way you can and also meeting people. I enjoy getting to know residents and their families and friends.

I am here to offer help should you need it.

Hi, I'm the Head Chef at Fountains.

I was born in Hastings East Sussex.

I qualified as a chef in 1985 and after spending four years in the hotel & restaurant industry I started at my first residential home nearly 32 years ago and I’m still in the care industry!

I passionately believe that good food can and should be delivered within the care environment.

Food plays such an important part of our day to day lives not just nutritionally but psychologically too, which is why it is so important to deliver consistently good food.

I am looking forward to making wholesome and tasty food for our residents each and every day.
